For decades now, movies and television shows have portrayed psychics who can reliably solve crimes and figure out the unsolvable. And not having any psychic powers himself, Joe is a skeptic. Somehow they're all like that woman who helped Pee-Wee Herman find his bicycle. In the basement of the Alamo. Frauds, cheats, mountebanks and the like. And so, Joe heads off to find some answers.
Joe meets with Ed Dames, a no-nonsense ex-military type who was a "remote viewer" for the US Military Psychic Spy Program: "Project Stargate." Dames tells Joe that the team of psychics knew where Osama Bin Laden was in 2007, and Dames has some strong views about why the military didn't go after Bin Laden at that time. He goes on to say that the project's aim was to take people who are naturally gifted with psychic ability (intuition, say) and turn that into a skill. Joe is walked through some of the process – that by using the unconscious minds of multiple psychics, patterns are uncovered and discovered and turned into data. Joe is astonished to hear that while the success rate of the program was once 50/50, advances have gotten the accuracy up to 100%.
